Peer Gynt - with original colour illustrations by Arthur Rackham

Henrik Ibsen's 'Peer Gynt' is a literary masterpiece that delves into the complex themes of personal identity, self-discovery, and societal expectations. Written in 1867, this Norwegian play follows the journey of a young man named Peer Gynt as he embarks on a series of adventures filled with fantastical creatures and encounters. The play blends elements of fantasy and realism, challenging traditional theatrical conventions and exploring the consequences of one's actions on both a personal and societal level. The original colour illustrations by Arthur Rackham beautifully complement the vivid imagery and dreamlike quality of Ibsen's words, enhancing the reader's experience of this classic work. Henrik Ibsen, known for his innovative theatrical techniques and bold exploration of controversial themes, drew inspiration from Norse folklore and philosophical ideas to create 'Peer Gynt'. His keen observation of human nature and society's norms shines through in this thought-provoking and captivating play. I highly recommend 'Peer Gynt' to readers interested in thought-provoking literature that explores timeless themes of identity, morality, and the human experience.
